New Audi Q7- 2015This is the second generation Audi Q7 which is expected to hit our shores in the second half of 2015. The new Audi Q7 is 325kg lighter than its predecessor in its 328bhp supercharged 3.0-litre V6 petrol version tipping the scales at 1,970kg. The new Q7 has gone through a detailed weight reduction exercise that has seen as much as 100kg cut from its suspension, an additional 71kg from its body, and around 24kg via the adaption of aluminium doors alone. It also features a new architecture for its electricals and refinements to the floorplan that now uses a greater amount of hot-formed high-strength steel and aluminum. The updated Q7 boasts an evolutionary appearance, the front gets a new bold single-frame grille which is similar to the recently updated Q3 SUV. The new Audi Q7 is 5,050mm long, 1,970mm wide and 1,740mm tall, which makes it 370mm shorter and 15mm narrower than its predecessor when underpinned by its standard steel sprung suspension setup. Its wheelbase has also been reduced by 10mm and now stands at 2,990mm.
